It, also, can function as a Preparatory Meeting for an Erasmus KA2 European Project which is prepared by Professors and Teachers from Greece, Italy and Turkey. The Conference is a Peer Learning Activity in the framework of the Educational-Training Project ‘Mesogeios-Isalos Grammi-Mediterranean Sea-Waterline’ (doc with protocol number 726/13-9-2015 of the School Advisors’ Office in Chania, Crete, Greece) and more focused in the Project ‘Teaching Science Notions with Ancient Greek Natural Philosophers’ (doc with protocol number 1134/02-11-2015 of the School Advisors’ Office in Chania, Crete, Greece) which are addressed to executives and teachers of School Education who are interesting in collaborating and sharing knowledge and experience in the field of sustainable school leadership by introducing philosophy in teaching and learning. The field Conference is organized by the School Advisor of Science Teachers of the Regional Administration of Primary & Secondary Education of Crete, Greece, the Mayor of Platanias Municipality of Chania, Greece, the Professor Sedat Ucar of the Department of Elementary Science Education, Faculty of Education, Cukurova University, Adana, Turkey, the Cultural Association ‘La Pagina’, Terni, Italy with the contribution of the Centro Scambi Culturali of Crotone, Consorzio Soc.

Rempicci"- Condofuri Marina, Access Point Del Comune di Roghudi, and the Municipal Library of the Municipality of Lamezia Terme. Through the Conference, the delegations aim to open the school communities of the West Crete, and of their prefectures, to the neighboring educational societies, by approaching scientific and pedagogical issues related to Science and Philosophy, improving the quality of daily school life, developing personally and professionally school teachers and officials. The main idea of the Conference, and the preparing European Project Erasmus KA2, is the Inquiry based way of Learning with New Technologies, inside and outside the classrooms, to get students thinking philosophically by the use provocations of Philosophy in Primary and Secondary Education. The goal is to expertise teachers to establish and answer philosophic queries based on the school and academic curricula, linked with pedagogical issues and problems. We plan peer learning activities with presentations, discussions, field works and trails with teachers of various disciplines, who will inquire in experiential way on philosophical and practical issues in the labyrinthine of scientific notions. Science and Philosophy are two activities of our minds with different orientations, so that different information can be given by each one. The Scientists explore the reality, the Philosophers try to show what could be true in reality, they do not live up to being the established as true and valid in general, but by overthrowing it, they seek to examine other possible ways of its existence. In this Open Educational Conference, we‘ll try to negotiate the perception of ‘BEING’ and ‘IS’, from the point of view of Ontology and Epistemology in a sociocultural environment, looking for similarities in the way of life and dialects. The participants of the Conference are both speakers and interlocutors. The languages of the lectures can be Greek, Italian, and English, also in Cretan, Grico and Salentina dialects. Participation is optional. All the expenses are covered, individually, by the participants. 4 Open Educational Conference “Teaching and Learning Science in Schools in the Traces of Ancient Greek Rationalistic and Naturalistic Philosophers of Magna Grecia”, Calabria & Apulia, October 2017 Thematic Areas Approaching Science Notions in Schools with the Ancient Greek Natural Philosophers in Magna Grecia Sociocultural Elements of the Life in South Italy, from the past to nowadays Teaching Science with Philosophy in Schools Collaborations and Partnerships of Schools in Mediterranean Area School Activities in an Interdisciplinary Framework Coordinators Mastodonti Rosella Mobile: 00393355606489, 00393891731828, Email: [email protected] Kalathaki Maria, Mobile: 00306946500408, Email: [email protected] Technical Support Kalathaki Maria, Mobile: 00306946500408, Email: [email protected] Venue Educational Pathway in Calabria & Apulia Bova Marina, Crotone, Gallipoli, Lamezia Terme, Locri Epizephyrii, Metaponto, Palmi, Pentedattilo, Pizzo Calabro, Reggio Calabria, Riace, Scilla, Sibari, Squillace, Stilo, Taranto, Tiriolo, Tropea, Vibo Valentia MAGNA GRECIA ITINERARY ON GOOGLE MAPS, designed by Paraschou Thodoris, Geologist, Msc, Teacher in 3rd Lyceum of Chania, Crete, Greece https://goo.gl/maps/McueQ9RU36u 5 Open Educational Conference “Teaching and Learning Science in Schools in the Traces of Ancient Greek Rationalistic and Naturalistic Philosophers of Magna Grecia”, Calabria & Apulia, October 2017 Organizing & Scientific Committee Akkoyunlu Buket, Professor of Çankaya University and Private Ari Schools of Ankara, Turkey Kalathaki Maria, School Advisor for Science Teachers, Director of The Regional Training Center of Heraklion, Peripheral Administration

  • Urban Form, Public Life and Social Capital - a Case Study of How the Concepts Are Related in Calabria, Italy
    EXAMENSARBETE INOM SAMHÄLLSBYGGNAD, AVANCERAD NIVÅ, 30 HP STOCKHOLM, SVERIGE 2019 Urban form, public life and social capital - a case study of how the concepts are related in Calabria, Italy SOFIA HULDT KTH SKOLAN FÖR ARKITEKTUR OCH SAMHÄLLSBYGGNAD Abstract The aim of this thesis is to investigate the urban structure of two Italian towns based upon physical structure and social function. The towns are Bova and Bova Marina in the ancient Greek part of Calabria, Area Grecanica. This is done by answering the research questions about how the urban structures are and what preconditions there are for public life and in extension social capital. This is also compared to the discourse in research about Calabria as a region lacking behind as well as the Greek cultural heritage. The thesis was conducted during one semester spent in the area and based upon qualitative research in form of observations of the towns, mapping, textual analysis and interviews. The results showed that the urban form of the two towns differ from each other because of their history and their localisation. Bova is an ancient town in the mountains that is separated through topography, and therefore conserved with many old structures but few inhabitants, suffering from out-migration. Bova Marina is placed on the coast of the Ionic Sea, south of Bova and connected to the region by train and roads, while Bova is mainly connected to Bova Marina. Bova Marina was founded as a town in late 19th century and expanded a lot because of the railroad. It is a town with inconsistent walking network, a lot of traffic and houses in bad condition.

  • Aspect in the Service of Mood: the Morphosyntax of Subjunctive in Griko Marika Lekakou1 & Josep Quer2 University of Ioannina1, ICREA/Universitat Pompeu Fabra2
    Aspect in the service of mood: the morphosyntax of subjunctive in Griko Marika Lekakou1 & Josep Quer2 University of Ioannina1, ICREA/Universitat Pompeu Fabra2 1. Introduction The topic of this paper is the realization of subjunctive mood in Griko. On the basis of the distribution of verbal forms inside na-clauses, we put forward the claim that, unlike Standard Modern Greek, in Griko subjunctive mood is encoded through both the choice of complementizer and the morphology of the verb. The complementizer na and the verb inside the embedded clause are thus in a relation of concord. We further propose that concord in terms of mood is a grammatical feature induced in Griko via contact with Salentino. If our analysis is on the right track, then subjunctive mood is another domain where contact between Italo-Greek and Italo-Romance in Southern Italy has had effects in both directions. 2. Subjunctive in SMG It is a well-known feature of Standard Modern Greek (SMG) that it lacks infinitives and employs finite complementation instead (a feature of the Balkan Sprachbund, cf. Joseph 1983). The examples in (1-3) illustrated the major complementation strategies in SMG, with oti-, pu-, and na-clauses, corresponding roughly to declarative, factive and subjunctive complements. (1) Ksero oti o Janis agapai ti Maria. know-1SG that the Janis love-3SG the Maria1 ‘I know that John loves Maria.’ (2) Lipame pu i Maria den agapai to Jani. regret-1SG that the Maria NEG love-3SG the Jani ‘I regret that Maria doesn’t love John.’ (3) I Eleni bori na agapai to Jani.

But does this mean I must eschew Other truths? From ‘The Bats of Wombat State Forest’ in Wild Familiars (2006) by Liana Christensen 3 4 ABSTRACT The revival since the early 1990s of Southern Italian folk traditions has seen the ‘rediscovery’ and active recuperation, especially by urban revivalist actors, of le tradizioni popolari, popular traditional practices originating in peasant society which are still practiced by some traditional local actors in remote rural areas of Southern Italy. This thesis draws on interviews, participant observation and historical research carried out mainly during fieldwork in Rome and Southern Italy in 2002-3 to present an ethnography of the urban revivalist subculture which has been the main driving force behind the contemporary Southern Italian folk revival. In the course of my enquiry into why the movement has emerged, I combine both synchronic and diachronic perspectives, as well as a phenomenological analysis of revivalist motivation and agency, to explore the question of why contemporary urban revivalists have begun to take an interest in the archaic and marginalised cultural practices of rural Southern Italy.

    To appear in Journal of Language Contact, Special issue edited by F. Gardani, M. Loporcaro & A. Giudici CΟΝΤRASTING ROMANCE AND TURKISH AS SOURCE LANGUAGES: EVIDENCE FROM BORROWING VERBS IN MODERN GREEK DIALECTS Angela Ralli University of Patras Abstract In this paper, I deal with verb borrowing in a language-contact situation involving Greek as target and Romance and Turkish as source languages. More particularly, I discuss the reasons and techniques that make verbs of typologically and genetically different languages to be accommodated in a uniform way within the same linguistic system, and verbs of the same donor to be integrated in a different manner within the same recipient. I try to provide an explanation for the observed divergences and similarities by appealing to an interplay of linguistic and extra- linguistic factors. For the purposes of this study, evidence is drawn from both written and oral sources from five Greek dialectal varieties: Grekanico, Heptanesian, Pontic, Aivaliot and Cypriot. Keywords: Verb borrowing, Integration, Modern Greek dialects, Romance, Turkish 1 Introduction Contact between languages, triggered by socio-political, economic and cultural relations, is, among other things, the cause of linguistic innovations due to matter and pattern replication.1 Contact phenomena have attracted the interest of scholars in recent years, who try to describe and analyze them from different perspectives and various theoretical frameworks, as well as to establish the principles constraining the influence of the source οn

    International Conference of Modern Greek Dialects and Linguistic Theory 9 Leonidio, Tsakonia, Greece 4–5 June 2021 Abstracts Edited by Angela Ralli, Brian D. Joseph, Mark Janse & Maxim Kisilier THE USE OF THE ACCUSATIVE AS AN INDIRECT OBJECT IN NORTHERN AND PONTIC GREEK: A CLASSIFICATION OF ITS SYNTACTIC RANGE ELENA ANAGNOSTOPOULOU1, DIONYSIS MERTYRIS2 & CHRISTINA SEVDALI3 University of Crete1 & Ulster University2, 3 One of the most important isoglosses in Modern Greek dialectology is the split between dialects that either use the genitive or the accusative to express the indirect object and other related functions inherited from the Ancient Greek dative. Our presentation aims to discuss the findings of fieldwork that was undertaken in the Prefectures of Grevena, Kozani, Pieria and Imathia in Northern Greece in May 2019 with native speakers of the two major dialect groups that employ the accusative as an indirect object (ACC = IO), Northern and Pontic Greek (Manolessou & Beis 2006). Our research focused on the range of the use of the accusative in the following syntactic contexts: i) as the third argument (recipient, addressee and source) in ditransitive constructions; ii) as a beneficiary (indirect object-like or free); iii) as an experiencer (e.g. with the piacere type of verbs); iv) as the (non-direct object) second argument of verbs that can denote a mixed comitative/goal role (e.g. with μιλάω “speak”, μοιάζω “resemble”); v) as a locative goal (e.g. with έρχομαι “come”) and source (e.g. with ξεφεύγω “slip away”); vi) as an external

  • The Twentieth Century Invention of Ancient Mountains: the Archaeology of Highland Aspromonte
    International Journal of Historical Archaeology (2021) 25:14–44 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10761-020-00543-x The Twentieth Century Invention of Ancient Mountains: The Archaeology of Highland Aspromonte John Robb1 & Meredith S. Chesson2 & Hamish Forbes3 & Lin Foxhall4 & Helen Foxhall-Forbes5 & Paula Kay Lazrus6 & Kostalena Michelaki7 & Alfonso Picone Chiodo8 & David Yoon9 Published online: 12 May 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract The high mountains of the Mediterranean are often considered as refuges of ancient traditions, particularly of pastoralism and brigandage. Is this image true? This paper reports the first systematic archaeological research on Aspromonte, Southern Calabria. Archaeological, cartographic and air photo evidence suggests that people used the high mountains in all periods from the Neolithic onwards. However, early usage was low- intensity and probably for special purposes such as iron-smelting, charcoal-burning and logging; only in the Classical Greek period was there sustained effort at inhabiting higher areas. The real development of the mountains came in the late-nineteenth and twentieth centuries. From the 1920s onwards, there were large-scale, state-fostered projects for economic exploitation of forests, political control of territory, and creation of a recrea- tional landscape. These endeavors tied into modernist ideas of the state, as well as period concepts such as Alpinism and healthy outdoor recreation for city dwellers. Ironically, as soon as these modern efforts made the high mountains accessible, they were assigned a chronotope, and were reimagined as the exemplification of an ancient way of life. Keywords Twentieth century . Mountains . Forests . Pastoralism . Development . Field survey Introduction: The High Mountains as the Last Refuge of Ancient Traditions In 1912, the eccentric English traveller Norman Douglas crossed the Aspromonte massif of Calabria on foot.

    Burc n. 23 del 19 Febbraio 2018 Sentiero Italia - Calabria Il "Sentiero Italia – Calabria" nasce dall'idea di collegare tutto il territorio regionale con un unico percorso costituito da 35 tappe cercando di creare un'offerta strutturata con i servizi integrati nel territorio. Il sentiero, facente parte del "Sentiero Italia – Calabria", è un percorso escursionistico che attraversando longitudinalmente la regione collega le aree naturalistiche, paesaggi, borghi, aree protette che da Reggio Calabria, attraversando tutto il Parco Nazionale dell’Aspromonte,ilParco Regionale delle Serre ed il Parco Nazionale della Sila giunge sul Parco Nazionale del Pollino. La valenza storica e culturale di questo sentiero, per i luoghi che attraversa e per le vicende che lo hanno interessato nel corso degli ultimi due secoli, prevarica finanche l’inestimabile pregio paesaggistico e naturalistico del percorso, il quale si connota per la spettacolarità delle viste, l’eterogeneità dei paesaggi e la biodiversità vegetale che contraddistinguono l’intero territorio regionale. Tale sentiero si colloca quindi sulla dorsale di riferimento della regione, è in sé l’arteria principale su cui scorre la storia indigena sia per quanto concerne gli aspetti naturalistici sia quelli culturali. Tuttavia nell’ambito del presente progetto si è individuato come obiettivo strategico quello di potenziare il valore storico, nonché naturalistico e turistico, del "Sentiero Italia – Calabria" , realizzando una rete di connessione tra lo stesso e tutti gli elementi caratterizzanti il territorio che attraversa. Il Parco Nazionale d’Aspromonte nasce nel 1989 per la tutela e la salvaguardia ambientale dei territori della sezione aspromontana dell’ex Parco Nazionale della Calabria, esistito fino al 2002.
